Of course, once you have the nice big picture, you&#39;re going to want big sound--human nature, right? =) <br />You could use headphones, but that&#39;s not very fun. So, I suggest you get an inexpensive stereo-audio cord like this http://amzn.to/SoundCord and first connect one end to the headphone hole of your laptop (or the green-circled &quot;audio line out&quot; hole in the back of your tower). <br />Stick the other end into a pair of available red and white holes in the back of your stereo receiver and set the receiver to the appropriate input (I would use tape or aux). With luck, you&#39;ll have nice, big surround sound. <br />Bonus: you can also stick the laptop-end of the cord into your ipod or even your smartphone and play your mp3&#39;s nice and loud!
